World Athletics Championships 2022 schedule and start times including Laura Muir in the 1500m final

The World Athletics Championships got underway in Eugene’s Hayward Field on Friday, kicking off 10 days of international competition that will see Great Britain’s track and field stars attempt to make their mark on the global stage.

Dina Asher-Smith suffered heartbreak in the 100m final and despite equalling her British record on Sunday night could only finished fourth behind Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Shericka Jackson and Elaine Thompson-Herah as Jamaica sealed a 1-2-3.

Elsewhere, Katarina Johnson-Thompson is among those defending titles from Doha three years ago, while Keely Hodgkinson and Laura Muir will be looking to add to their success at the Tokyo Olympics. Muir will be looking to shock Kenya’s Faith Kipyegon in a showdown 1500m final on Monday night.

Sydney McLaughlin is the leading US hope, but the hosts have already tasted success with Fred Kerley leading a clean sweep in the men’s 100m. Favourite Kerley finished ahead of team-mates Marvin Bracy and Trayvon Bromell on Saturday night.

There is a seven hour time difference between the UK and Eugene, Portland on the west coast of the United States. But here is the full event schedule, as well as how you can watch.
